The final i-TED is currently under construction and characterization [1]} and the position-reconstruction algorithms have recently undergone a major upgrade based on the use of Machine Learning techniques [2]}. In this context, Monte Carlo (MC) simulations become an essential tool for testing the sensitivity of the detector performance to the improved features, developing new background suppression methods and planning the upcoming neutron capture time-of-flight experiments [3]}. Initial MC simulations of the background suppression concept were presented in Ref. [4]}. To evaluate the prospects and capabilities of the final detector, more accurate MC simulations including the details in the geometry as well as experimental effects have been carried out in this work. The simulations have been made with the Geant4 [5]} toolkit (v10.6) using the officially released QGSP_BIC_HP Physics List [6]} which contains the standard Electromagnetic Package.
